My Surgery is on Thursday!



Recommended Posts

I broke my pinky finger yesterday (or jammed it). can't take pain killers this week. gotta live with the pain. OMG. Of all things to happen. It hurts to brush my teeth (holding the toothbrush), brush my hair, hold the toilet paper...if you get my meaning. it's my dominate hand, for crying out loud!

Trust me it will absolutely fly by!! I thought it would never get here but looking back it has been so fast. Do as much research as you can and start transitioning to your preop diet ahead of time so it isn't as drastic of a change!! Thank you for the well wishes!

Good luck!!! I know how excited/nervous you are. I was sleeved on 3/9 and without even thinking about it, was sitting at a softball game on Friday and realized I was sitting there with my legs crossed! What a feeling! I haven't been able to do that for...well, who knows how long it was. I was so excited when I realized what I was now able to do.

@@wannaBthinsoon do you have a 2 week liquid diet? I just realized I've been on this liquid diet for 12 days without cheating!!! I can't believe we're so close.

I'm on the 2 week pre-op diet too and have been so hungry but am doing fine regardless. I've lost 6 lbs in 12 days.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
